I focused on this stock because a man I interviewed that is now a millionaire himself told me years ago that the way to make money in the stock market is one way:

Purchase a large number of shares.

I know that's obvious to you, but he said buy low-priced stocks (he said under $50) in large quantities and make $2 or $3 off it and sell it. Pocket the money and move on.

He never bought anything over $50.
I see his thinking. Invest $20,000 in AMZN and see it rise $10. What have you made? You can only buy 70 shares for your $20,000, so you made $700.

However, you purchase $20,000 of an $8 stock, you get 2500 shares. It goes up only 50 cents and your way ahead of that $10 run.

Forgive me if I am too basic in this, but this was the advice from a rich man that now "plays" with $100,000 with internut stocks. I don't want to offend anyone.

His other advice, take a fair profit and wait for another opportunity,. He said if I made more money on a stock in one day than I made at work, consider it a success and move on.

Greed is a terrible emotion to overcome.
